On the eve of winter Solstice, a massive flash envelopes the Earth and then there is nothing. The sun no longer shines and civilization is plunged into unending darkness. Those exposed to the mysterious flash have changed—they have become bloodthirsty, cunning, and determined to devour anyone who is not infected. They are Ragers. In Sweden, a group of uneasy travelers hears a broken broadcast. There is hope. Something called Sanctuary waits, but it is thousands of miles away, somewhere on the shores of the British Isles. Meanwhile, in a London supermarket, a high school English teacher from the States finds himself stranded along with a handful of students on a senior trip. Outside, hoards of hungry Ragers await, ready to tear them limb from limb. Their only hope is to find Sanctuary. Solstice is a tale of hope, terror, survival, and finding love at the end of the World.

Pulse-pounding & Interesting

First, the good: Not your typical zombie novel, Solstice imagines the undead creatures a bit different, which is a breath of fresh air. I found the writing to be quite good, the action fast-paced and the descriptions very vivid. I plowed through this book in one sitting, so anxious was I to see how it ended.
Now, the bad (which isn't all that bad, I swear!)-- This book doesn't delve into the scientific reasoning behind the sudden appearance of zombies or the constant state of darkness, which bugged me a little. I prefer at least a little science with my science fiction. My qualm was soon forgotten though as the story pulled me in deeper.
And thinking about it a bit further, I can see that not having the answers is more realistic. I mean really, when daylight suddenly disappears and grade school kids are taunting you with "I want to see how you taste," will it really matter what cataclysmic event is responsible? No. Staying alive will become the priority.

It a OK book

Well for one thing it was a free book so I didnt expect the book to be anything but so so...it has typo's, misspelled words, plus in some areas the story didnt match example: in the first part of the book it explains that there was no moon because the sun was gone and sun light is what makes the moon shine at night, but in the middle of the book "melanie notices silhouettes against the moom.." LOL. Like I said the book is ok.

I read a lot of sci-fi stories, but I couldn't stay with this one. Either the characters didn't grab me, or the pacing was just off. I didn't finish the story, and didn't realize I hadn't until I got the request for the review.
